Outstanding Top Value. Firm reduction overshadows everything but a suggestion of petrol. Otherwise, there is excellent concentration to the relatively powerful medium weight flavors that possess unusually good size, weight and depth on the lingering finish. This isn't refined but offers impressive overall quality for its level.HK$3,165.00 -

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-93)
Pale lemon and lime in colour. The difference in bouquet compared to the village Chassagne is a slight additional muscularity in bouquet. There is finesse too for this soil. One plot 50+ years old, the other 2003. A little fresh lime at the finish after pure white fruit. Tasted: November 2021HK$6,835.00 -

(12x75cl) 2020Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)
Mid lemon yellow. This is slightly more perfumed than its neighbour on the nose, and with a striking liveliness on the palate, an excellent balance, a very light menthol here, this will be an excellent Champgains. Tasted: November 2021HK$11,240.00 -
Burghound (90-93)
(Outstanding) A cool, pure, airy and appealingly layered nose displays aromas of mostly acacia blossom and lemon-lime, along with a background hint of crushed fennel. There is excellent energy and a gorgeous texture to the medium weight flavors that flash plenty of minerality on the balanced, nicely dry and sneaky long finish that would also benefit from developing better depth.HK$12,685.00 -
(6x75cl) 2022Jancis Robinson (17)
Cask sample. Delicate citrus aroma with a hint of oak sweetness and spice. Deep, rounded, creamy but with freshness at the core. Chalky freshness, intense and full of tension on the long, dry finish.HK$5,335.00 -

Wine Advocate (92-94)
The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Combettes unwinds in the glass with aromas of pastry cream, crisp orchard fruit, honeycomb and white flowers. On the palate, it's full-bodied, broad shouldered and powerful, with a dense, blocky profile that is classic Combettes. When I tasted it, the wine was quite reserved and less advanced in its élevage than most of Carillon's other cuvées, but its potential is clearly considerable.HK$13,800.00 -

Vinous (92)
The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru is well defined on the nose, taut and quite austere and stony, initially delivering moderate intensity but gaining in the glass. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity and slithers of white peach mixed with nectarine. Quite a seductive and pretty La Folatières that embraces the warmth of the summer but maintains tension and mineralité. This is enticing and promising. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting in Savigny-lès-Beaune.HK$6,405.00 -
Wine Advocate (92-94+)
The 2017 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Perrières is very promising indeed, offering up a youthfully reticent bouquet of crushed rocks, ripe citrus oil and white flowers. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, deep and satiny, with lovely purity, a taut, tensile core and a long, precise finish. To my palate, this is the finest Perrières that François Carillon has produced to date.HK$15,680.00
